Title: Process for the production of spectacles
IPC: G02C13/00
Filed: 1984-11-16
Abstract: The process in accordance with the present invention is especially well-suited for the preparation of spectacles with a correction effect which are adapted both optically and mechanically, whereby the mechanical adaptation is objectified to at least a considerable degree and the mechanical adaptation depends to a lesser extent or not at all on subjective evaluations of the fits of the spectacles on the part of the fitter or the spectacle wearer. For each nose piece of the spectacles the location of at least one nose point on or near the contact surface at which the bridge reposing surface touches the nose, is measured in space relative to two reference points, for example, the eye centers. From this nose point measurement the location of the pad nose piece reposing surface which the latter is to occupy in space on the completed spectacles is determined, which occurs, for example, under the assumption of pressureless contact between the contact surface and the reposing surface. Corresponding to this determination the nose piece of the spectacles are physically shaped, specifically in their correct relative position with respect to the lenses since a target position has been predetermined for the lenses with respect to two reference points in space.

Title: Method for the treatment of a protective film and its application to a plate
IPC: B29C63/02
Filed: 1985-09-24
Abstract: A method and an apparatus are described for processing and applying a protective foil to a flat sheet made, more particularly of a thermoplastic synthetic material. The protective foil is used to protect the relatively soft surface of the sheet but, during further processing, difficulties arise in that parts of the surface must be freed of protective foil. In order to protect at least certain areas of the sheet as long as possible from external effects or damage, there is provided a protective foil which, before it is applied to the sheet or to a strip from which the sheet is subsequently produced, is formed with perforations. During further processing of the sheet, the parts of the foil corresponding to the areas of the sheet that are to be freed, are removed and the remainder is protected by the remaining parts of the protective foil.

Title: Holding device for drilling and chiselling tools
IPC: B25D17/08
Filed: 1986-10-22
Abstract: A tool chuck for securing a tool bit in a drilling and cutting device includes a guide tube into which the tool bit is inserted and an adjusting sleeve displaceable relative to the guide tube. The guide tube has spaced first and second apertures with the first apertures holding locking members and the second apertures holding entrainment strips. The adjusting sleeve has alternating first and second pockets in its inside surface for receiving the locking members and the entrainment strips. With a tool bit having slots for both the locking members and the entrainment strip, both the locking members and entrainment strips can be displaced radially inwardly by the adjusting sleeve. If the tool bit has only slots for the locking members, the locking action can be effected with the entrainment strips maintained radially outwardly from the tool bit.

Title: Gene for gentamycin resistance and its use as a marker
IPC: C12N15/76
Filed: 1987-04-29
Abstract: S. ghanaensis DSM 2932 is resistant to gentamicin at up to 20  mu g/ml. Total digestion of the genomic DNA with BglII, incorporation of the restriction fragments into a suitable plasmid, and selection using gentamicin results in gentamicin-resistant clones which contain a 7 kb fragment with the gentamicin-resistance gene. The plasmid pPH1JI likewise contains a gentamicin-resistance gene located on a 2.3 kb HindIII-BamHI fragment. These genes are suitable as markers, in particular for Streptomycetes vectors.
Patent EP-0264619-A3 (EP)
Title: Polarized magnetic drive for electromagnetic switching device
IPC: H01F7/16
Filed: 1987-09-15
Abstract: The magnetic drive of an electromagnetic contactor comprises two spaced coils (10, 11) having a coaxial bore in which an armature (14) is mounted for reciprocal movement between two end positions. A control slider (21) is disposed between the coils (10, 11) with its two sides forming stops for the armature (14). When the armature (14) is changed over from one to the other end position, the slider is also changed over and limits in the mid-position the return movement of the armature (14) from the respective end position. In a contactor designed for tri-stable operation, undesired movement of the armature beyond the mid-position is avoided, which could otherwise lead to an inadvertent change-over of the armature (14) to the other end position. If the contactor is designed for monostable mid-position operation, oscillation of the armature (14) about the mid-position is prevented, so that this mid-position is stabilized.

IPC: H04L25/49
Filed: 1987-10-28
Abstract: A data modulation interface is provided for 
serial data transmission. A biphase signal is encoded 
with the binary bits of a parallel data word. The bits 
of the parallel data word are examined to determine 
whether there are more one bits or zero bits in the 
word. A polarity bit is provided in addition to the 
other bits to indicate which bit-state occurred most 
often. The biphase signal is modulated to create dif­
ferent time intervals between phase reversals with one 
time interval corresponding to a bit-state of one and 
another time interval corresponding to a bit-state of 
zero. The shortest time interval is assigned to 
correspond to the bit-state occurring most often in the 
word so that the total time required to transmit each 
word is minimized. A time interval can be assigned to 
a sync signal transmitted after each parallel data word. 
A time interval can also be assigned to correspond to 
plural bit combinations so they can be represented by a 
single phase interval and transmitted quickly.
